Review: I did exactly as you suggested...went to Google and did a search on sony ch:13. I didn't find one bad thing about this unit in the first three pages of the search results and stopped looking after that.

Epinions show that of about 10 buyers, 76% gave the machine a thumbs up and 22% give the unit a thumbs down. If you look at the ratings of all the recordable DVD/VCR units, you will find that is at the higher end of approval ratings.

Review: i shopped on line trying to find what recorder would be the biggest bang for the buck. after all the research, it came down to this product and the lg recorder with vcr. i went with this item mainly because i couldnt find many of any reviews for the lg recorder and decided i couldnt go wrong with the sony name and quality.
i bought this recorder on jan. 29 and had it hooked up and running with no problems as the manual was easy to read. additionally, the manual easily explained the functions of the machine and i was able to transfer the vhs tapes to dvd with no problems.
so far no problems with this recorder and i recommend it definitely. the price maybe alittle more then i had planned but its worth it as this recorder records in all formats and as mentioned is easy to program.

Review: This DVD was my third choice behind Go Video and Pansonic until reading various complaints from owners of Go Video/Pansonic machines about neither playing foreign DVD/CD and how difficult both players were to install and operate.

Sony player has played several discs that were not made on it and it is very easy to install and use. Price was over $ 100.00 lower than above mentioned brands and was the cheapest player/recorder on the market.

My only complaint is the remote, which has so many buttons it makes you stop and think about what you want to do.
